Assessment: WAEC SSCE - English Language - 2013 (Objective) Subject: English Language

Question 1 Report

From the words lettered A to D, choose the word that best completes the sentence below.

The doctor ....... my illness as malaria

Answer Details
The word that best completes the sentence is "diagnosed". Explanation: When a doctor examines a patient's symptoms and medical history to determine the cause of an illness, this is referred to as a diagnosis. Therefore, the doctor "diagnosed" the illness as malaria, meaning that they determined that the patient's symptoms and medical history were consistent with a diagnosis of malaria. The other options, such as "discovered", "prescribed", and "announced" do not accurately convey the meaning of determining a medical diagnosis.
